Patients with dermatomyositis shared partially similar transcriptome signature with COVID-19 infection
In this study, we found that the skin of patients with DM and the skin of patients with COVID-19 have similar transcriptional profiles, and identified key genes involved in dermatomyositis based on bioinformatics analysis. These hub-genes might be served as potential biomarkers for the early diagnosis and therapy of DM, including MX1, ISG15, IFIT3, IFIT1, RSAD2, IFIT2, IFI6, XAF1, IRF9, MX2.PMID:37353938 | DOI:10.1080/08916934.2023.2220984 (Source: Autoimmunity)
